Second or Third-ary \t\t<\/a>
Commence the over-broad conclusions of the poorly attended primaries before the slightly less badly attended midterm elections.<\/p>\n

Far be it from me to avoid being the latest blogger to comment on last night’s primaries. In my defense, I don’t have a lot of mistresses<\/a> or out-of-wedlock children<\/a> available to help me make abstinence videos (Bristol Palin’s likely to soon to be released by Vivid Video<\/em>).<\/p>\n

Democrats held the late John Murtha’s seat in Pennsylvania through his long-time aide Mark Critz<\/a>, for what that’s worth. But it will give Politico<\/em> one less pre-fab column to publish (oh hell, they’ll publish it anyway). Blanche Lincoln is going to have to have a run off<\/a> against the more progressive Bill Halter in Arkansas, where she’ll run as the consummate<\/em> outsider. Good luck with that.<\/p>\n

And Arlen Specter lost to Joe Sestak<\/a> foiling Specter’s plan when he switched parties. It also makes Ed Rendell<\/a> the Dick Morris of people who are not actually Dick Morris<\/a>. Arlen can now return to his former claim to fame and attempt to tie Anita Hill to the McKinley Assassination<\/a>. But at least Arlen was classy<\/a> in defeat. Ed Rendell remained Ed Rendell<\/a> (as Dick Morris in La Cage aux Fool<\/a><\/em>).<\/p>\n

“Classy” is a concept that has clearly eluded tea party “lap-throb” Rand Paul who managed to not even take the congratulatory phone call<\/a> of the slightly less insane (and Mitch McConnell endorsed<\/a>) Republican he defeated in the Kentucky GOP primary.<\/p>\n
